A crisp, practitioner’s guide to the multiview era.

You’ll learn what actually drove YouTube TV’s rise, how ESPN and Comcast are deploying multiview to compete, the hard trade-offs of client- vs. server-side architectures, and the proven path to Build-Your-Own-Multiview with Skreens Tessera™

Over the past two years, multiview has gone from “nice-to-have” to table stakes. Sports bettors, fantasy players, and digital-native fans expect to watch multiple games on any device, without restrictive CPU limits or platform-by-platform rollouts.

This eBook investigates real deployments (YouTube TV, ESPN, Comcast/Xfinity, F1) and lays out a plain-English blueprint for choosing the right architecture, launching fast, and turning multiview into subscriber engagement, retention, and revenue.
